It feels like the push to subscribe to Mattel’s DC Universe Club Infinite Earths for 2013 hasn’t been quite as strong as Mattel’s effort for the Masters of the Universe Classics Club Eternia, but judging from the thermometer, it’s probably more severe. Mattel’s posted pics of the potential DC subscription figures on their Facebook page.
Saint Walker the Blue Lantern will be the Jan monthly figu if we hit the min number of subs. He will come with his lantern (not shown)
Phantom Stranger will be the Feb figure if the sub goes through. He has been a long time coming having been sculpted almost two years ago!
Long time fan demanded JL member Elongated Man will come with a second “stretchy” hand and his mag glass. He will be the March figure if we get the min number of subs.
He didn’t make the 2011 retail line, but now thanks to Club Infinte Earth the Orange Lantern is here. Ideally the April figure if the sub moves forward!
Wally West rounds out our reveals as the tenitive May figure for Club Infinite Earth!
M. Mallah and the Brain! This will be the Club figure if we sell the min number of subs for 2013.
2013 subscriptions sales are on now and only through Aug 6th on Mattycollector.com! If we don’t hit the min number of sub holders we will likely do fewer figures at higher prices. But here’s hoping we don’t have to cross that bridge. Find out all the details now over on Mattycollector.com and enjoy the pics!
And hey, DC fans, don’t foget about our great Watchmen figures as well. Also avail as a sub and only through Aug 6th only on Mattycollector.com! We’ll get images of them up as well in the next few days.
While there was some overlap with the MattyPalooza panel that was earlier in the day yesterday, Mattel took the opportunity in their DC panel to announce their new retail lines for 2013 – Batman Unlimited, DC Universe Unlimited, and a Batman (Adam West) TV series line (to launch in fall 2013). We’ve posted pics earlier of Mattel’s new mystery line (Watchmen, spoilers!) and DC Club Infinite Earths. Enjoy!
On Preview Night, Mattel showed us their Club Infinite Earths Black Mask and Poison Ivy production samples in 6 inches (we had seen them in 2-up format at Toy Fair). Earlier today, at their MattyPalooza panel, Mattel showed us the figures that would round out this year and kick off the subscription next year.
With DC Universe Classics pulling back from retail, we expected fewer reveals to open up San Diego Comic-Con. Mattel had a few reveals in Club Infinite Earths – Poison Ivy and Black Mask, and also had packaged samples of the DC Universe All-Stars lineup. I also snapped some pics of The Dark Knight Rises Movie Masters – I haven’t seen these yet at retail, even though they’ve been out for a few weeks.
